Key operational metrics declined year-over-year: crude oil marketing volumes dropped
HOUSTON, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adams Resources & Energy, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: AE) (“Adams” or the “Company”), a company engaged in marketing, transportation, logistics and repurposing of crude oil, refined products and dry bulk materials, today announced operational and financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The Company also declared a quarterly cash dividend of
Third Quarter 2024 Financial Summary
- Total revenue of
$695.2 million - Net loss of
$4.5 million , or ($1.76) per common share - EBITDA of
$0.2 million - Adjusted EBITDA of
$2.3 million , which excludes inventory valuation losses - Cash and cash equivalents of

$73.6 million , versus$80.3 million at December 31, 2023 - Paid cash dividends of
$0.24 per share
EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA are non-generally accepted accounting principle (“non-GAAP”) financial measures that are defined and reconciled to net (losses) earnings in the financial tables later in this release.
“We are encouraged by the increase in Adjusted EBITDA from crude oil marketing operations, as higher oil prices compared to the prior-year quarter more than offset the lower volumes related to our exit of the Red River operations in the fourth quarter of 2023,” said Kevin Roycraft, President and CEO of the Company. “Our third quarter results reflect the impact of power outages and flooding on our operations throughout the Gulf Coast caused by multiple hurricanes and the prolonged weakness across the specialty chemicals market through a combination of lower demand due to excess capacity, and continued inflationary pressures.”
Additional Operational Highlights
- Adams’ crude oil marketing subsidiary, GulfMark Energy, Inc. (“GulfMark”), marketed 72,208 barrels per day (“bpd”) of crude oil during the third quarter of 2024, compared to 92,556 bpd during the third quarter of 2023 and 67,099 bpd during the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in volumes compared to the prior year period was largely driven by GulfMark’s exit from the Red River trucking operations in the fourth quarter of 2023.
- The collective fleet of Service Transport Company, Adams’ liquid chemicals and dry bulk transportation subsidiary, traveled 5.89 million miles during the third quarter of 2024, versus 6.51 million miles during the third quarter of 2023 and 6.32 million miles during the second quarter of 2024.
- Throughput in Adams’ crude oil pipeline and storage segment, which includes the Victoria Express Pipeline System, was 10,326 bpd for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 8,548 bpd for the third quarter of 2023 and 13,881 bpd for the second quarter of 2024, and terminalling volumes were 11,319 bpd for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 9,350 bpd in the third quarter of 2023, and 16,660 bpd for the second quarter of 2024.
- Adams’ remained solidly positioned with 411,426 barrels of crude oil inventory at September 30, 2024, compared to 267,731 barrels at December 31, 2023.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this press release and accompanying schedules include the non-GAAP financial measures of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA. The accompanying schedules provide reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (losses), their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company defines EBITDA as net earnings (or losses) before interest income or expense, income tax and depreciation and amortization expense, and Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA after removing the effects of inventory liquidation gains and valuation losses. Company management believes these measures are useful indicators of the financial performance of our business and uses these measurements as aids in monitoring the Company’s ongoing financial performance from quarter to quarter and year to year on a regular basis and for benchmarking against peer companies. Management also believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors as they are measures commonly used by other companies in our industry and provide a comparison for investors for the Company’s performance relative to its competitors. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adams’ non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate such measures in the same manner as Adams does.
Conference Call
In light of the proposed transaction with Tres Energy LLC announced earlier today, the Company has cancelled the conference call, previously scheduled for Wednesday, November 13, 2024, to discuss its results for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
